The Late Movies: Star Trek Sound Effects

I love me some Star Trek -- and I'm a TNG man through and through. So when I came across a 24-hour loop of the Enterprise NCC-1701-D engine noise (that's the TNG ship to you non-superfans), I was in geeky heaven. It's wonderfully soothing -- I'd love to have this sound playing at my doctor's office. Below, I've rounded up some Trek sound effects for your holiday enjoyment.

Star Trek: TNG Ship Noise

A 24-hour loop.

Star Trek: TOS Ship Noise

A mere 2-hour loop. Something went terribly wrong with the video (it's all green), but who cares about the video anyway?

Star Trek Sound Effects - Enterprise Bridge Sequence

A medley of effects from around the ship (TOS).

Star Trek Sound Effects - Enterprise Bridge Sequence #2

Another medley of similar effects (TOS).

Star Trek Sound Effects - Photon Torpedo (3 Blasts)

Three photon torpedos (TOS).

Star Trek Sound Effects - Warp Drive Acceleration & Deceleration

She canna' take much more of this, captain! (TOS, of course.)

Star Trek Sound Effects - Many Tribbles

TOS, naturally.

TNG Red Alert

Ah, the good old Red Alert! Usually followed by: "All hands to battle stations!"

Also on Mental Floss:

DID YOU KNOW? Marlon Brando hated memorizing lines so much that he posted cue cards everywhere to help him get through scenes.
He even asked for lines to be written on an actress's posterior. (That request was denied.)
